i would like to congratulate my mate pete for buying his first skyline... with a bit of convincing i converted him from a series 6 rx7 to a yellow r32 gtr with a trust kit....

you will see him on the forums soon....

number plates are "GTRRRR" you may have seen the guy driving it around... he said he is on these forums a bit so you may already know the car and him....

i drove to perth twice today once to look at it then he took our price so we went to the bank etc etc and went back up to perth to get it....

he now has a little godzilla in his carport....

goodluck pete hope everything goes smoothly....

ps. the car will have P plates on it untill november or some sht i think.... everyone will think he has a rich daddy....

Dude I test drove this car a month ago.

The gear box is screwed and apparently the engine leaks oil (though this could be a rumour)

But i can vouch for the gearbox.....its way too hard to get into gear (especialy 1st)

Might wanna get it checked, I dont mean to cause alarm, but thought I would let you know.

Car looks sweet though. How much he pay for it?

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
